Abstract:

There is a physiological balance between our systems in our body. When this physiological balance is disturbed, diseases occur. It is thought that this balance is achieved by eliminating potentially harmful substances that cause diseases with wet-cupping. Infertility); It is defined as not having a pregnancy despite the couples having regular sexual intercourse. Voluntary infertility patients who applied to Erbakan University Meram Medical Faculty Traditional and Complementary Medicine Center were applied cupping procedure. The excretory systems in our bodies may be insufficient to remove heavy metals. Lead, mercury and nickel, which contributed to the development of pain, were found to be quite high in painful groups in our study. The fact that the height of the volume in the blood is higher than venous blood indicates that these heavy metals can be detoxified better with the cupping process. We think that during conventional infertility treatment, one of the complementary applications, cupping therapy can be added as an adjunct therapy in order to regulate the hormonal balance by heavy metal detox and in pregnancy treatment.

Abstract:

Aims and Objective: To study and compare coagulation profile in normal pregnancy, pregnant women at high risk, non-pregnant women and pregnancy outcome. Method: This comparative prospective study was done in tertiary healthy care centre of north India for over period of one year. Result: Total 230 cases were taken, out of which 222 antenatal cases were unbooked cases with no antenatal visits along with 8 non-pregnant healthy women. Cases were further divided into three groups of non-pregnant women, normal pregnant women and pregnant women at high risk. All groups were compared for derangement of coagulation profile and pregnancy outcome in terms of adversity. In normal pregnant women (Group-1), there were 2 cases (94.4%) of deranged coagulation with isolated thrombocytopenia. In pregnant women at high risk (Group-2), 31 cases (16.6%) were having deranged coagulation out of which maximum cases were of eclampsia- preeclampsia spectrum (eclampsia and HELLP syndrome) followed by anaemia, placental abruption and placenta previa. In terms of adverse pregnancy outcome, maximum mortality was again in ecalmpsia and HELLP syndrome cases. In adverse perinatal outcome along with eclampsia and HELLP syndrome, preterm labour and FGR was a significant factor. Conclusion: Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy remain the main cause of deranged coagulation and adverse outcome in high risk pregnancy group along with anaemia and liver disease.

Abstract:

The number of patients with an implanted shunt reaching reproductive age and planning pregnancy is increasing thanks to advances in the treatment of hydrocephalus. Changes in the mother‘s organism, which are mainly related to the accumulation of water in the organism and the elevation of intra-abdominal pressure, contribute to the increased incidence of complications during pregnancy and childbirth. Therefore, it is necessary to make a preconception exam and specify pregnancy management, a suitable method of childbirth dealing with potential complications. Possible malfunction of the shunt is solved individually according to the current neurological findings and taking into account the patient‘s overall condition and gestational age. Vaginal delivery is considered safe and preferred by most authors. Primary caesarean section is indicated only in patients with a history of rapidly progressing deterioration of the neurological condition due to shunt malfunction or serious complications related to its impaired shunt function. In an uncomplicated pregnancy with normal values of intracranial pressure, both general and epidural or spinal anesthesia can be used when choosing anesthesia. Key words: hydrocephalus – shunt – ventriculoperitoneal shunt – ventriculoatrial shunt – lumboperitoneal shunt – pregnancy

Abstract:

Objective: A case report of a patient with interstitial pregnancy and a history of hyperprolactinemia. Case report: A 30-year-old woman was hospitalized for a suspicion of ectopic pregnancy and referred for laparoscopy. During the laparoscopic surgery, interstitial pregnancy was diagnosed and solved with cornuostomy. Conclusion: Ectopic interstitial pregnancy represents a serious worldwide issue because unrecognized, it can endanger a woman’s life, despite advances in ultrasound examination, the diagnosis often remains inaccurate. Laparoscopic surgical approach with evacuation of pregnancy with subsequent uterus suture represents one of the possible approaches. This method is minimally invasive and safe. Key words: interstitial pregnancy – laparoscopy – methotrexate

Abstract:

Heterotopic pregnancy is a rare type of pregnancy and this report presents a detailed overview of a case of heterotopic pregnancy with live intrauterine gestation and ruptured right adenexal gestation. Coexistence ofintrauterine and extrauterine gestation is known as heterotopic pregnancy and its incidence is 1: 30,000 of spontaneous pregnancies.1-2It is associated withsignificant maternal morbidity and mortality due to the risk of rupture of ectopic pregnancy. There is a false sense of security when an intrauterine gestational sac is seen. This results in the inadequate inspection of adenexae despite a strong initial clinical suspicion of ectopic pregnancy. Thorough holistic approach and ultrasonography are needed in managing these patients.Key Words: Heterotopic pregnancy, Acute abdomen, Salpingectomy

Abstract:

Background: Anemia is a prevalent condition affecting 40% of pregnant women, posing significant risks to both maternal and fetal health outcomes, including premature birth, low birth weight, infection, postpartum hemorrhage, and the need for cesarean section.Materials and Methods: This retrospective cohort study examined 390 pregnant women attending the gynecology and obstetrics clinic of Amir Al-Momenin Hospital. Sampling was conducted among referred women on a predetermined date. Data were collected and analyzed using STATA version 11 software. A comparison of pregnancy outcomes between women with and without anemia was performed using independent t-tests, chi-square tests, and multivariate logistic regression models.Results: The study revealed that low hemoglobin and hematocrit levels in the first trimester of pregnancy did not exhibit a significant association with pregnancy outcomes. However, low hematocrit levels in the second trimester were found to significantly increase the risk of stillbirth, low Apgar score, and premature delivery, although they did not significantly impact other maternal and neonatal outcomes.Conclusion: These findings suggest that hematocrit levels in the second trimester of pregnancy may serve as a predictor for certain adverse pregnancy outcomes in both the mother and the infant. Hence, it is imperative to screen for anemia and monitor blood indices in women before and during pregnancy. Timely and appropriate treatment should be administered upon diagnosis of anemia to mitigate potential risks to maternal and fetal health

Abstract:

Objective: Copeptin is a stable fragment of vasopressin. Copeptin levels have been found to reflect the degree of endothelial stress in various conditions, including acute coronary syndrome. Copeptin may be a bio marker for endothelial stress during pregnancy. However, there is still a lack of understanding of its dynamics and levels throughout pregnancy. This study aims to describe intra-individual and longitudinal changes in copeptin levels at 30th and 36th gestational weeks in healthy pregnant women with uncomplicated pregnancy and delivery and to establish specific reference ranges. Methods: A total of 125 pregnant women with uncomplicated pregnancy and delivery were included. These women were monitored throughout their pregnancy and gave birth at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology Olomouc University Hospital. The blood was taken at ~30 and ~36 gestational weeks. Serum copeptin levels were measured using a Kryptor Compact PLUS analyzer. For statistics, we used R software and the "referenceRanges" package. Results: It was found that serum levels of copeptin were significantly higher in the 36th week group than in the 30th week group (P < 0.05). Cook's distance was used to eliminate outliers. The 30th week median was 3.377 pmol/l, reference range = 1.343–7.829 pmol/l, and the 36 week was median 4.735 pmol/l and reference range = 2.06–13.2 pmol/l. In the 36th week reference range, the median was higher than in healthy, non-pregnant women (P < 0.05). Copeptin values can exceed 10 pmol/l, particularly after the 36th week. In the 3rd trimester, this value may indicate cardiovascular and endothelial overload. Conclusion: Copeptin levels were found to vary significantly depending on gestational week. The proposed reference ranges take into account the increased secretion of vasopressin in pregnancy. The existence of specific upper reference limits represents a potential advantage in detecting pregnant women prone to hypertensive disease in the 3rd trimester. Key words: copeptin – vasopressin – preeclampsia – gestational hypertension – reference ranges – pregnancy

Abstract:

BackgroundContinuation of biologics during pregnancy in patients with chronic inflammatory diseases during pregnancy is still a difficult medical decision. Many women with chronic rheumatic inflammatory diseases (CRID) decide to stop tumor necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi) treatment once pregnancy is confirmed to avoid potential adverse fetal events but taking the risk of inflammatory flare.ObjectivesTo compare in real life settings the pregnancy outcomes of two treatment strategies among women with CRID: to continue TNFi vs. stop TNFi upon pregnancy diagnosis.Methodsthe French nationwide health insurance database (Système National des Données de Santé) was used to emulate a target trial in adult women, with CRID (i.e., rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis or spondyloarthritis), having started a singleton pregnancy between 2008 and 2017, and and being treated with TNFi upon pregnancy diagnosis. We compared the frequency of unfavorable pregnancy outcomes (malformations, obstetrical complications, and infections) between the treatment strategies at pregnancy diagnosis, using inverse probability weighted marginal models.ResultsA total of 1466 pregnancies were included, and among them, TNFi treatment was discontinued after pregnancy diagnosis in 74%. Mean (SD) age of women at the start of pregnancy was 31 (5) years and mean (SD) disease duration was 4 (5) years.Continuation of TNFi was not associated with increased frequencies of unfavorable pregnancy outcomes: interestingly, the proportion of pregnancies with at least one unfavorable obstetrical outcome tended to be lower in the group of patients continuing the TNFi after pregnancy diagnosis but without reaching statistical significance: 66 (17.3%) vs. 201 (18.5%) in the group continuing vs. discontinuing, respectively (adjusted RR= 0.79 [95% CI, 0.57; 1.10]). Also, there was a trend for a lower frequency of severe maternal infections in the group continuing the TNFi (7 (1.8%) vs. 36 (3.3%), (aRR=0.43 [0.16; 1.14]).

Abstract:

Objective: To summarize the current knowledge on pregnancy in a cesarean scar. Methodology: A literature review on the topic using the PubMed database. Results: Gravidity in a cesarean scar is a relatively new type of ectopic pregnancy that will be an increasingly common problem in an era of increasing cesarean section rates. It is still a relatively rare event, occurring in about 6% of the population. Diagnosis is based primarily on ultrasound examination and is essential early on in pregnancy. The pathogenesis of the disease is due to a disorder of the basal layer of the endometrium and can lead to conditions that we refer to as placenta accreta spectrum. The management is completely individualized and depends on hCG values, ultrasound findings, fetal viability, the wishes of the pregnant woman and the experience of the gynecologist concerned. Conclusion: This is still a rare occurrence of ectopic pregnancy but with increasing potential. The solution is completely individualized based on a precise and early ultrasound diagnosis. Key words: cesarean scar pregnancy – ultrasound diagnosis – placenta accreta spectrum – vacumaspiration – methotrexate – uterine scar resuture

Abstract:

Madam, Miscarriage or spontaneous abortion is defined as the pregnancy loss occurring before the 24th week of gestation. This term is used when an ultrasound has confirmed an intrauterine pregnancy1. It is the commonest adverse fate of pregnancy, with vaginal bleeding and abdominal pain as alarming symptoms. It is found that around 12-15% of confirmed pregnancies end up in a miscarriage. Although genetic factors (chromosomal abnormalities) top the list, maternal factors, especially nutritional status, can affect the developing embryo and result in early pregnancy foetal demise2. During pregnancy, maternal requirements for energy, macronutrients (carbohydrates, proteins and fats) and micronutrients increase to cope with the physiological changes occurring in the mother’s body and to support adequate foetal development. Two Case control studies have been conducted and have found a preventive effect of milk consumption and dairy products on spontaneous abortion3. There is also an association between decreased animal fat and carotene intake and increased risk of hydatidiform mole, which can ultimately lead to a miscarriage2. Studies proved that not only macronutrients but deficiency of micronutrients also contribute to poor pregnancy outcomes. Some essential micronutrients include iron, magnesium, zinc, vitamin b12 and folic acid., Due to its antioxidant effects, Vitamin C is also required during this stage and contributes to a healthy pregnancy1. Besides deficiencies, even excess of some micronutrients, like caffeine, especially during the pre-pregnancy state contributed to the risk of early pregnancy loss4. Studies have been done to determine the mechanism behind the nutrition’s effect on the outcome of pregnancy. In the pre pregnancy state, nutritional imbalances result in the alteration of germ cell morphology, which hinders the chances of fertilisation of the altered germ cell. In addition to this, nutritional status during the peri-implantation and placental developmental stage (embryonic stage) play a vital role in the establishment of pregnancy and fetal development so any deficiency during this stage increases the risk of miscarriage. Folic acid deficiency during this stage is harmful. Although it mainly results in the development of congenital anomalies in infants, it is seen that by increasing homocysteine levels it can also lead to miscarriage, although the association is still unknown1. Not only undernutrition but overweight and obesity in mothers also lead to poor pregnancy outcomes. ---Continue

Abstract:

Ectopic pregnancies comprise approximately 1-2% of all pregnancies, with most occurring in the ampulla of the fallopian tube. Cornual pregnancy after ipsilateral salpingectomy is rare. We report a case of spontaneous cornual pregnancy 8 months after ipsilateral salpingectomy for isthmic pregnancy in a 32-year-old woman. In our patient, the gestational sac was not visualized in the uterus at 5 weeks of gestation. The patient experienced abdominal pain and an ultrasound examination revealed a hematoma around the right cornual region. Emergency laparoscopy was performed, which revealed the ruptured cornual pregnancy and surrounding hematoma. A wedge-shaped incision was made at the site of the cornual pregnancy, followed by myometrial suturing. In cornual pregnancies, the risk of rupture should be considered even in the early pregnancy stages.

Introduction: Cervical endometriosis is a very rare site for endometriosis, with a reported incidence of 0.11–2.4%. Case Report: We present a histologically proven case of cervical endometriosis in a 33-year-old pregnant woman who presented with post-coital bleeding during the first trimester of her pregnancy, with subsequent spontaneous regression, and successful vaginal delivery. Conclusion: This case emphasizes the importance of a thorough pelvic examination in patients presenting with bleeding in early pregnancy and biopsy of any lesions as long as it is safe. Cervical endometriosis should be added to the list of differential diagnoses of bleeding in pregnancy after the more common causes have been excluded.

Abstract:

Premature membrane rupture, extreme stomach pain, severe headaches, and bleeding are all warning signs of pregnancy. impacts such as miscarriage, early pregnancy, fetal discomfort, and pregnancy-related toxicity that could affect the mother's health and the safety of the unborn child. If the mother and family are aware of the risk indicators of pregnancy and take prompt action to overcome them, complications can be prevented and addressed early. In light of this, it is crucial for moms to be aware of the pregnancy's risk indicators, such as bleeding and an early rupture of the membranes, through education in order to prevent difficulties and assist mothers in recognizing their pregnancy. The technique employed in this activity is to coach participants about pregnancy-hazard symptoms. Online games are played with expectant mothers and their families. Following the counseling, there was an improvement in knowledge of the pregnancy danger signals, going from 76 (pre-test) to 97 (post-test).

Abstract:

SummaryFatal pulmonary embolism remains the most common cause of mortality among pregnant women in many Western countries. The physiological changes of pregnancy produce a hypercoagulable state that increases the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE).Women with inherited or acquired thrombophilias are at particularly high risk of VTE during pregnancy, and thromboprophylaxis may be advisable in some cases. Thrombophilia is also associated with complications of pregnancy, including fetal loss, pre-eclampsia, intra-uterine growth restriction, and placental abruption. The antithrombotic agents available for the prevention and treatment of VTE during pregnancy, and pregnancy complications, include unfractionated heparin (UFH), low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) and aspirin. Vitamin K antagonists are contra-indicated in pregnancy. Low-dose aspirin may have a role in the prevention of some pregnancy complications, although its safety in early and late pregnancy is uncertain. The efficacy and safety of LMWHs have been demonstrated for the prevention and treatment of VTE in pregnancy. These agents are increasingly being used in place of UFH, which is associated with a higher incidence of side effects compared with LMWH, in addition to the need for regular laboratory monitoring. Evidence is also emerging to support the use of LMWH in the prevention of recurrent fetal loss, although further trials are needed to explore the role of LMWHs in this indication and in the prevention of other complications of pregnacy.

Abstract:

Introduction: Acute fatty liver of pregnancy (AFLP) is a rare, but potentially fatal condition, characterized by hepatic failure typically in the third trimester of pregnancy that is associated with multiorgan involvement resulting in several clinical and laboratory abnormalities. Aim and Objectives: To study the course of acute fatty liver of pregnancy which will help later to early diagnose, prompt delivery, and providing supportive care to improved maternal morbidity and mortality rates. Materials and Methods: The authors report an observational case series of patients who developed acute fatty liver of pregnancy and managed in critical care in a year that illustrated the compound challenges in recognition, monitoring, and management. One of the cases has been imprinted with maternal mortality because of deterioration of the condition leading to sepsis along with multiorgan dysfunction syndrome. Results: A total of three cases of acute fatty liver of pregnancy were found in a year. Nausea, vomiting, and anorexia were the most common symptoms among all. Jaundice and ascites were the most common findings. Deterioration of the condition can lead to complications like sepsis, Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation, multiorgan failure, and death. Conclusions: Early detection, delivery, and supportive care are sufficient to reduce fatality but in cases of deterioration of patients’ condition despite proper management can lead to multiple complications and ultimately mortality. Regular antenatal health check-ups can help in early detection.

Abstract:

The aim of the study was to determine the sex of the fetus in gene expression data lacking this information using expression of the Y-linked genes, and to elucidate the difference between sex-chromosomal-linked gene expression between placental samples with XX and XY genotypes during pregnacy. We have detected 27 differentially expressed sex-chromosomes-linked genes. We have shown that, in most cases, the expression of genes from X-chromosomes in pregnancy carrying baby girls is higher than in pregnancy carrying baby boys, but there are exceptions to this pattern, which must be taken into account in large-scale studies of gene expression. The nature of the difference in gene expression during pregnancy carrying baby girls and boys (positive or ne gative difference) persists during pregnancy, but the magnitude of the difference may remain unchanged or decrease from the first to the third trimester. Taking sex dimorphism into account when analyzing large-scale gene expression data between trimesters of pregnancy increases the number of differentially expressed genes, which improves the informative value of the study and is important for elucidating the pathogenesis of pregnancy complications associated with placental dysfunction.

Abstract:

Aims and Objectives: To evaluate whether serial monitoring of fetuses beyond 40 weeks with biophysical profile and non-stress test improves the fetal outcome in terms of morbidity and mortality determined by APGAR score at 5 minutes, presence of meconium in liquor, weight of baby and admission of neonate in nursery and to compare the maternal morbidity associated with prolonged pregnancy, labour induction and mode of delivery in the study and control group. Materials and Methods: It is a prospective controlled study conducted in the department of obstetrics and gynaecology Ghurki Trust Teaching Hospital, Lahore from 1st September 2007 to 31st August 2009. 200 patients at 40 weeks of pregnancy matching the inclusion criteria were enrolled for the study. They were divided into a study and a control group consisting of 100 patients each. Patients in the study group were subjected to fetal monitoring in the form of cardiotocography (CTG) and biophysical profile (BPP) while those in the control group were evaluated clinically and by kick count chart (KCC). The outcome of the two groups beyond 40 weeks was compared with each other. Results: The percentage of patients reaching 42 weeks was 4 in each group. The rest went into spontaneous labour, were induced or had emergency caesarean sections due to various reasons. The difference between the rest of the parameters like maternal morbidity, mode of delivery, fetal APGAR score and admission in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) between the two groups were not statistically different. Conclusions: After 40 weeks of gestation fetal monitoring should be started with proper counseling of the patient, clinical assessment and fetal kick chart. NST and biophysical profile should be used selectively in patients with sluggish fetal movement or suspected reduced liquor clinically. All patients who reach 42 weeks must be induced.
